Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 190: Arrested

A part of Athena’s world came crashing down around her as Finn’s words pierced her like a dagger.

The phone slipped from her grasp, falling to the floor with a faint thud. Her hand trembled uncontrollably, as if it had a mind of its own, and her thoughts spiraled wildly out of control.

More than twenty-five patients dead in a single day? It was unfathomable, unless... unless the gang was involved.

The thought sent a chilling shudder down her spine as a mixture of panic and anger bloomed in her chest. She couldn’t seem to stop the shaking of her hands or ease the sharp, painful throbbing in her head and heart.

"Ma’am, are you okay?" came Jake’s concerned voice, but it felt as if he were miles away.

The buzzing in her ears drowned out everything else, and in her desperate bid for clarity, she bowed her head to her thighs, gasping for control. She clutched her ears, trying to stop the relentless ringing, but it was futile.

When her phone rang beside her, the sound became unbearably loud, and she inadvertently shoved it aside, overwhelmed.

"Ma’am?" Jake probed again, but when he saw Athena’s detached demeanor, he quickly dialed Aiden’s number, knowing the latter needed to intervene.

Meanwhile, Athena was attempting to focus on her breathing patterns, reciting them in her mind like a mantra. She couldn’t allow herself to fall apart like this; she had to regain her composure, clinging desperately to the fraying thread of her sanity.

By instinct, she reached beside her for her bag, eager to search for her medications. But her hand met only emptiness, and an icy realization washed over her. She had left her bag with Aiden, and her emergency drugs were even safely tucked away in her private cabinet. She hadn’t thought to travel with them.
